Mannix finally said something useful by harping on that matchup. But he didn't bother taking it as far as you just did.

I feel like teams play WAY above their average levels against us. If it's because we let them or they just get up to play us, idk. But it's very annoying.

Schroder and Tatum should never be allowed to play together. They constantly just take turns over dribbling.

Celtics always make Murray and the Spurs look great.

That last play Tatum just did is what he needs to do more. Stop playing so slow, make your moves fast. What sucks is he probably knows in his head his jumper is off right now which is why he’s forcing the drives. I also don’t see JT working on his shot during warm ups or during half time. He needs to get that fixed cause it’s been a struggle this year shooting.

Just one man’s opinion


Nah! I’d swap them in a heart beat. Smart is fine until the last 2mins of a close game. Dude is really unreliable on offense to finish games. Decision making is questionable as well.
